I am wailing as I can't find my Grandad on the 1911 census. He was born in 1906 so he should be there. His name is William Crutchley born in Mansfield, Notts.

There's supposed to be a formidable wildcard option, but,unfortunately, I'm not sure it's working yet... or, rather, I'm pretty sure it's not working yet.
Wildcard searching allows you to replace letters or sequences of letters with an asterisk (*), if you are unsure of how a name was spelt, or can't find it with the usual spelling.
A wildcard can be used at the beginning of a word, where it is especially useful as capital letters in cursive writing are more likely to be transcribed incorrectly (although the site has a transcription accuracy of 98.5 per cent).
For example, if you search for William Lancaster and you type in William *caster, the search will return a list of results that include names such as William Doncaster or William Hilcaster - as well as William Lancaster.
You can also use two wildcards to search for a string of letters such as *ollin*, if you are perhaps looking for a Rollind or a Collins.
The wildcard can be used within all search fields, apart from ones which contain the drop-down menus.
Even if you are sure that you have the correct name of your ancestor, they may not be recorded exactly as you’d expect. It’s not uncommon for the spelling of a name to change as it is passed down through the family, or your ancestor may have gone by a different name in everyday life to the one they were christened with and used on the form.
The variants option will automatically check the name you have entered against a database of alternative spellings, abbreviations and diminutives, and return these variants in the search results. So, for example, it will return ‘Elisabeth’ if you entered ‘Elizabeth’, ‘Smyth’ and ‘Smythe’ along with ’Smith’, ‘Sally’ along with ‘Sarah’ and ‘Polly’ with ‘Mary’.Last edited by Christine in Herts; 12-01-09, 20:02.Researching: BENNETT (Leics/Birmingham-ish) - incl.

Yes I tried putting just the christian name in - as wasn't sure what surname she might be using and it wouldn't let me.
Cost me 3 payments so far for 2 results so quite expensive.

I am jumping up and down!!! I demand that FMP correct their error. I took a hunch and looked for one of Polly's brother's that just happens to be the one that they are living with. But William is not there. Why would he not be with his Mummy?
I demand that FMP offer a discount to all the members of this site to make up for this:DLast edited by Pippa Doll; 12-01-09, 20:41.Click here to order your BMD certificates for England and Wales for only £9.25 General Register Office
